Instrument Cluster and Display
Outside Temperature Display
When the ignition is switched ON, the
outside temperature is displayed.



N O T E
Under the following conditions, the
outside temperature display may differ
from the actual outside temperature
depending on the surroundings and vehicle
conditions:
 


y Signi¿ cantly cold or hot temperatures.



y Sudden changes in outside temperature.



y The vehicle is parked.



y The vehicle is driven at low speeds.

Changing the Temperature Unit of the
Outside Temperature Display
The outside temperature unit can be
switched between Celsius and Fahrenheit
using the following procedure.
(Vehicles with Type B)
Settings can be changed by operating the
center display screen.
Refer to Personalization Features on page
9-9 .
(Vehicles without Type B)

1. Press the INFO switch with the ignition
switched off and continue pressing the
INFO switch for 5 seconds or longer
while switching the ignition ON. The
outside temperature display À ashes.
2. Press the INFO switch to change the
outside temperature unit.
3. Press and hold the INFO switch for
3 seconds or longer while the outside
temperature display is À ashing. The
outside temperature display illuminates.

N O T E
When the temperature unit indicated in the
outside temperature display is changed,
the temperature unit indicated in the
engine coolant gauge display changes in
conjunction with it.

Distance-to-empty
This displays the approximate distance
you can travel on the remaining fuel based
on the fuel economy.
The distance-to-empty will be calculated
and displayed every second.



N O T E
 


y Even though the distance-to-empty
display may indicate a suf¿ cient amount
of remaining driving distance before
refueling is required, refuel as soon as
possible if the fuel level is very low or
the low fuel warning light illuminates.
 


y The display will not change unless you
add more than approximately 9 L
(2.3 US gal, 1.9 Imp gal) of fuel.
 


y The distance-to-empty is the
approximate remaining distance the
vehicle can be driven until all the
graduation marks in the fuel gauge
indicating the remaining fuel supply
disappear.
 


y If there is no past fuel economy
information such as after ¿ rst
purchasing your vehicle or the
information is deleted when the battery
cables are disconnected, the actual
distance-to empty/range may differ from
the amount indicated.

Maintenance and Care
Scheduled Maintenance
Chart symbols:
I : Inspect: Inspect and clean, repair, adjust, ¿ ll up, or replace if necessary.
T : Tighten
Remarks:
*1 The engine oil and ¿ lter must be changed at least once a year or within 16,000 km (10,000 miles) since last
engine oil and ¿ lter change. The system must be reset whenever replacing the engine oil regardless of the
message/wrench indicator light display.
*2 Use of FL-22 is recommended when replacing engine coolant. Using engine coolant other than FL-22 may
cause serious damage to the engine and cooling system.
*3 According to state/provincial and federal regulations, failure to perform maintenance on these items will not
void your emissions warranties. However, Mazda recommends that all maintenance services be performed at the
recommended time or mileage/kilometer period to ensure long-term reliability.
*4 The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) initialization must be performed so that the system operates
normally (if equipped).
*5 If this component has been submerged in water, the oil should be replaced.
*6 Check the tire repair À uid expiration date every year when performing the periodic maintenance. Replace the
tire repair À uid bottle with new one before the expiration date.
